Being Me Lyrics - Singles - Kathryn Cloward

I used to wear a mask that was molded carefully 

To maintain an image of what everyone wanted me to be 

For most of my life it was all I knew 

Until that day when there was nothing left to do 

But take it off it didn't serve me anymore 

To play it safe that's not what I'm here for 

And I started to live by just being me 

Content with the treasures of my authenticity 

This is what I know to be true for me 

I dream big 

I love passionately 

I give it my all 

Yes that means sometimes I fall 

But that's all right 

My wings always resume flight 

I feel free 

I cherish loyalty 

I laugh real loud 

I seldom follow the crowd 

I choose to live 

Joyfully 

I'm proud to shine 

By just being me 

It has been a long journey to find my way back to me 

Removing the layers imprinted by society 

Uncovering my truth what's always been me within 

And trusting what I feel with my intuition 

I've let go of many things with courage and grace 

And I'm grateful for the lessons that got me to this place 

Now I enjoy just being me wearing the skin of vulnerability 

This is what I know to be true for me 

I dream big 

I love passionately 

I give it my all 

Yes that means sometimes I fall 

But that's all right 

My wings always resume flight 

I feel free 

I cherish loyalty 

I laugh real loud 

I seldom follow the crowd 

I choose to live 

Joyfully 

I'm proud to shine 

By just being me
